The new rules, part II
The new rules, part II
So the literbike rules - or whatever they'll call it (betting is on
Ft. Lauderdale Uberbike) - are in, and it's the same old dsb shit.
185hp cap, no special parts, prespecified models, etc., etc. No $55k
homologation special Ducati - HP cap makes that unnecessary - but they
list the BMW that doesn't even exist yet. There is a purse, and no
participation min and max, which is something good.
So basically it's 1000SS in the same sense dsb is 600SS, which seemed
to be the way it was heading. and it's amazing how much bullsh*t
people went through to get there.
Anyway, on the ground in SLC and I'll try to get reactions
tomorrow...
